TANGENT Project

It’s incredibly gratifying to receive official recognition for the quality and impact of our work in a research project! I’m proud to share that our paper, “Intelligent Urban Traffic Management via Semantic Interoperability across Multiple Heterogeneous Mobility Data Sources,” has won the Best Paper Award in the In-Use Track at the International Semantic Web Conference (#ISWC2024). 🚗 About the Paper The paper showcases the solution developed by Cefriel within the TANGENT Project, which facilitates seamless collaboration among mobility stakeholders by harmonising and merging heterogeneous data sources. 🔑 Key Contributions The solution enables and simplifies: - the collection of large-scale historical data for training machine learning models to support traffic prediction; - the access to both static and real-time data to power innovative applications for traffic managers. A special thanks to Mario Scrocca, the scientific and technical leader behind this solution, and to all my talented colleagues Marco Grassi, Valentina Carriero, Irene Celino, Alessio Carenini, Gianluca Gizzi, Andrea Fiano, Antonia Azzini for their invaluable contributions. 🙏 I am also grateful to our project partners, especially Tiago Dias and Ana V. Silva, for their collaboration in testing and using the solution to empower the future of traffic management tools.

📌 Last week, Hugo Landaluce - from the University of Deusto - presented in Spanish the TANGENT results at the Congreso ITS Euskadi. The ITS Euskadi Congress, organised by the Mobility and Logistics Cluster of Euskadi, is the annual meeting of companies and transport agents working in the Basque Country in the field of Mobility and Transport Technologies. The presentation in Spanish is available on our website: https://lnkd.in/eMkTUYHZ

🎉 Excited to share some fantastic news! Our paper, "Intelligent Urban Traffic Management via Semantic Interoperability across Multiple Heterogeneous Mobility Data Sources", has won the Best Paper Award in the In-Use Track at #ISWC2024 🏆✨ We are really happy about this recognition, which highlights our effort to bridge real-world challenges from the #mobility domain with #SemanticWeb and #KnowledgeGraphs technologies. Here's a glimpse of our work: 🎯 Semantic Interoperability for Mobility: Tackling the challenges of accessing, harmonising and fusing heterogeneous data sources to enable seamless collaboration across mobility stakeholders. 🚦 Dynamic Multimodal Traffic Management: Empowering data-driven tools for enhanced traffic operations in four European cities. 🔧 Reusable Resources and Solutions: Providing metadata standards, ontologies, and tools that can be reused to solve mobility challenges and discussing solutions that can be applied to other domains. A huge thank you to my co-authors Marco Grassi, Marco Comerio, Valentina Carriero, Tiago Dias, Ana V. Silva, Irene Celino and all the colleagues/partners involved in the TANGENT Project 🌟🙏 Link to the paper in the comments ⬇️ #ISWC2024 #BestPaperAward Cefriel A-to-Be

Did you miss our final #conference this week? You can still learn more about our multimodal traffic management #dashboard in our cluster webinar on November 12 (11:00 to 12:30)!

It's almost a wrap for TANGENT! 📌 Yesterday, we presented the project's key results at our final conference in Brussels. 1. The TANGENT #dashboard and related solutions, which provide enhanced information services for multimodal transport management, real-time traffic management services, and transport network optimisation for transport authorities. 2. Our research #methodologies and tested technologies for traffic management such as travel behaviour analysis, transport prediction and simulation, transport network optimisation and data gathering, harmonisation and fusion. 3. The technical #challenges in multimodal network and traffic management which were discussed on a panel moderated by Leire Serrano (University of Deusto) with Eleni Vlahogianni (National Technical University of Athens), Athina Tympakianaki, PhD (Aimsun), Ynte Vanderhoydonc (imec), Antonio D. Masegosa (University of Deusto), Marco Comerio (Cefriel), Tiago Dias (A-to-Be). 4. The view of transport managers on the TANGENT tools tested in the #cities: Rennes, Greater Manchester and Lisbon. This was also discussed on a panel which included Hannah Tune (Transport for Greater Manchester), Frédérique BAUDOUIN (Rennes Ville et Métropole) and Joana Cunha (Carris), and moderated by Lucie Tristant (ID4MOBILITY). 5. The #policies and #governance structures behind multi-actor cooperation in traffic management. 6. ....and we finished with a #workshop on the future of the TANGENT tools: exploitation, policy and future roadmap. A big thank you to the in-person participants, online participants, our Advisory Board and everyone who has contributed to the project in the last three years. Watch this space for our final deliverables, brochure and more!
